Now can we be realistic about Blackmon

#56

Quote:Whenever someone talked about acquiring a player, one of Ketchman's boilerplate responses was "picks, not players."

 

Predictably, most here regurgitated his spiel without giving it much thought.

 

But the whole point of picks is to get players.

 

Not "jars on the shelf," mind you,  but guys who can actually make a positive difference in a game.
I think his mantra was in relation to trading players for picks versus trading picks for players. I think at that point we had people clamoring to trade picks for other teams player and he was saying you want the pick not their player. I know the wording is a little off but it was in fighting the idea that we want to give up our picks for another teams players.
